DIGEST-MD5: Gone for good - No more clear-text passwords!

Nov. 24, 2014, 7:24 p.m. by mati

Sine November 15, we have received only a single complaint from a user that was no longer able to connect to our server and this user wasn't able to name the client. So we've decided that DIGEST-MD5 is gone for good. We will not enable it again.
This means that we will enable SCRAM-SHA1 password storage on Saturday, November 29. From then on, all passwords will no longer be stored as clear text passwords!
